00:00:00Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you, Jessica.
00:00:10Cheers. May it be full of surprises.
00:00:13Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you, Jessica.
00:00:17You have inherited this mansion, along with your father's business, empire, and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:24I just need a signature from you. Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:30Ho, ho, ho! We're rich!
00:00:34Let me hold on to you a bit for you, baby.
00:00:37You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:49It must feel great to win the jackpot.
00:00:51No, my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:55You bastard child! You will never reunite with your mother. We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:01:03My mother is gone because of you?
00:01:05Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:12Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:15Yes, ma'am.
00:01:16USCIS. Your visa expired years ago. You're being deported.
00:01:20What? No, there must be some mistake here. Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:26Whoops. Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:29What?
00:01:31Hey, baby.
00:01:33Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her?
00:01:37Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:40That's true.
00:01:42According to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:47Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:52You thought you could get rich overnight? Keep dreaming.
00:01:57Seriously? Bon voyage, half-sis.
00:02:07The boss is urgent. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:12Jessica Miller?
00:02:15It's her.
00:02:18Oh, my God.
00:02:24Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:26She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:30She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:36Wait, wait, wait.
00:02:38Jessica?
00:02:40Do I know you?
00:02:42She doesn't remember me.
00:02:47I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer.
00:02:50Just pretend we know each other. If I can get you out of here.
00:02:53We've spoken to the judge, and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:57We can't deport her.
00:02:59She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:03:03Who's the lucky guy?
00:03:05I am. I'm marrying her.
00:03:13A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:15Our marriage is real.
00:03:17A hundred percent real.
00:03:19Prove it, then.
00:03:26That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:41Need more proof, officer?
00:03:43Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:47And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:51Fine, you can have her.
00:03:53Thank you, officer.
00:03:58Guys, I think we're good.
00:04:01It's not over.
00:04:05We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:04:08And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:12Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:16Or it's game over.
00:04:20Well...
00:04:23Thank you...
00:04:25for the rescue.
00:04:27Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:29But, um...
00:04:31Daniel...
00:04:33Would you...
00:04:35Would you marry me?
00:04:37Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:40I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:43But once I get my green card,
00:04:46I'll inherit my father's business empire and...
00:04:49I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:52Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.
00:04:54I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:56But, before I get my green card,
00:04:59you're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:05:03They're trying to get rid of me.
00:05:05And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:05:08And they made my mother disappear.
00:05:09Deal.
00:05:11What?
00:05:13That's it?
00:05:16This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:20Something that I want with you.
00:05:22Now, I know it's rushed.
00:05:25But I promise you,
00:05:27I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:30From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:33To fill our... good memories.
00:05:51You... you can't...
00:05:53You can't...
00:05:55You can't...
00:05:57You can't...
00:05:59You can't do this!
00:06:01Jess, it's okay. Just wait here.
00:06:03I'll handle it.
00:06:08What?
00:06:10Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:12Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:06:14And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:17It's too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:06:19Are you insane?
00:06:21Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:25Daniel...
00:06:274 and 10.
00:06:29She's gone because of you?
00:06:31Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:06:34The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:38I... I recognize that face.
00:06:41From the newspaper, that was James Thornton.
00:06:44From the Thornton family.
00:06:46The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:52Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:55She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:57Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:59I'm giving you a position as the heir to our family.
00:07:02And you need to divorce that girl.
00:07:04Now.
00:07:06I'm doing all this to clean your mess up.
00:07:08Just leave us alone.
00:07:17Sorry about that.
00:07:19Is your name...
00:07:21Daniel Thornton?
00:07:23Yeah.
00:07:25The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:29I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:33Yes.
00:07:35I can explain.
00:07:37Wait, wait, wait. Jess, Jess.
00:07:39I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:41I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:43Oh, really? Because your name is right here.
00:07:45On the marriage certificate.
00:07:47I share the last name as Thornton.
00:07:49But I am not one of them.
00:07:51Thornton is a common name.
00:07:52Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:54Really? Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:56I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:58Is he your father?
00:08:02Is he your father?
00:08:04No, he's not my father.
00:08:06He was threatening to drive you out of the country.
00:08:08And I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:08:10Jess, I'm on your side.
00:08:12You're not one of them.
00:08:14I'm sorry.
00:08:17It's okay.
00:08:19Don't worry about it.
00:08:23Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:26Welcome.
00:08:28Is that your Labrador?
00:08:30It looks exactly like mine.
00:08:32I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:34No way.
00:08:36I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:38That's crazy.
00:08:42Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together
00:08:45just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:47Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:49I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just...
00:08:52Jess, please, I insist.
00:08:54We made a deal, remember?
00:08:56I also want to thank you
00:08:58for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:09:02It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:19Jess?
00:09:33Jess?
00:09:36She's buying on me.
00:09:39No.
00:09:41No, no, no, no.
00:09:43I was just passing by and just...
00:09:45Do you need anything?
00:09:47I was joking.
00:09:49Can you pass me the towel?
00:09:51It's just hanging up next to the door.
00:09:54Yeah, sure, sure.
00:10:09Oh my God.
00:10:11What?
00:10:12I just got fired.
00:10:13What?
00:10:15Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:16What?
00:10:18Yeah.
00:10:30Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:10:32I'm sorry, Jess,
00:10:34but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:38I worked for this company for years.
00:10:41I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:43There's nothing I can do.
00:10:44I'm sorry.
00:10:50Look who's here.
00:10:52Someone who just got fired.
00:10:55This suits you.
00:11:00It was you.
00:11:02I should have known you were behind this.
00:11:04I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.
00:11:07I'm going to take away everything you have.
00:11:09Sister.
00:11:10You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:12Who are you?
00:11:14My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:11:16son of James Thornton,
00:11:18the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:21Oh.
00:11:23Mr. Thornton,
00:11:25welcome.
00:11:27What brings you here?
00:11:29Well,
00:11:31I have some good news for you.
00:11:33Jessica Miller,
00:11:35she's just closed for the day,
00:11:37so I thought I'd drop by.
00:11:38Jessica Miller?
00:11:40She's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:43Take a look.
00:11:54Oh my God.
00:11:59It's real.
00:12:01Absolutely.
00:12:03With her hard work and dedication,
00:12:05she's made this possible.
00:12:06It's a real shame
00:12:08you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:10Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton,
00:12:12um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:12:16Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:12:20Good.
00:12:22And, uh,
00:12:24make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:12:30Jessica!
00:12:32You should have told me!
00:12:36What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:38Jessica!
00:12:40You secured a huge deal for the company!
00:12:44Did you not just fire her?
00:12:46I changed my mind.
00:12:48Jessica's staying.
00:12:50Actually,
00:12:52she's being promoted
00:12:54to sales manager.
00:12:56Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:12:58Great.
00:13:00Thanks, Sam.
00:13:02This
00:13:04is not over.
00:13:07I can't believe it!
00:13:09Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted!
00:13:11Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:13I just spoke with James Thornton
00:13:15and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:18Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:20Oh my God.
00:13:22That's fantastic.
00:13:34No way.
00:13:36No way.
00:13:42Jessica?
00:13:44How's work?
00:13:46Did you get your job back?
00:13:48Daniel,
00:13:50I need a lawyer.
00:13:56Well,
00:13:58look who decided to show up.
00:14:00Too bad for you, Jess.
00:14:02Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:14:03I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything
00:14:06for this little pathetic bastard child.
00:14:10You are out of luck.
00:14:12Well, that's a lie.
00:14:14You showed me the will
00:14:16and I signed the documents.
00:14:18I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:20I've just discovered a revised will
00:14:22that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:27Mr. Thornton.
00:14:29Who is this?
00:14:31He's my lawyer and a damn good one.
00:14:33You know, Jess,
00:14:35I didn't realize you had enough money
00:14:37to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:39You sleep with him?
00:14:41Patrick,
00:14:43can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:45Talk all you want.
00:14:47It won't change anything.
00:14:55Alright, Patrick.
00:14:57I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:59I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:15:01I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:15:03The revised will's solid.
00:15:05Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:15:08Here, take a look.
00:15:10You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:12Honor of the will,
00:15:14I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:16You'll lose your license
00:15:18and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:15:20That goes against your father's wishes.
00:15:22You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:15:24I'll deal with my father.
00:15:26Don't you worry about that.
00:15:28You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:33Um,
00:15:35this revised will is a fake.
00:15:37The original will stands.
00:15:39What the hell are you doing?
00:15:41He's doing the right thing.
00:15:43Jessica,
00:15:45you've gotten your inheritance back.
00:15:47Congratulations.
00:15:49Oh, my God.
00:15:51Patrick,
00:15:53do what you are supposed to do
00:15:55or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:59Don't listen to her, Patrick.
00:16:01I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:16:03Who do you think you are?
00:16:05James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:16:09I sure can.
00:16:11Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:13Yes, the original will stands.
00:16:15No, you are crazy.
00:16:17No, I'm not.
00:16:19According to the original will,
00:16:21Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:23Kristen, you're out.
00:16:25I think you two should leave.
00:16:27You homewrecker.
00:16:29Just like your mother.
00:16:31I will not allow violence.
00:16:33I didn't come here to argue
00:16:35over a house
00:16:37and assets.
00:16:39I came here to be recognized
00:16:41as an actual member of this family.
00:16:43Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:45You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:47You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:49I had none.
00:16:51And you
00:16:53took my mother away from me
00:16:55and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:57You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:59And I would rather
00:17:01give it away to charity
00:17:03than give it to you.
00:17:11You two should pack your things up.
00:17:13You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:23What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:25Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:27I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:29The right thing?
00:17:31Going against me?
00:17:33I don't care anymore.
00:17:35Her game is over.
00:17:37I'm sure you didn't come all this way
00:17:39just to argue with me.
00:17:41So what do you want?
00:17:43I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:46Interesting.
00:17:50What's in it for me?
00:17:52Once Jessica gets her mom back,
00:17:54I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:56Whatever I want?
00:17:58Like what exactly?
00:18:00I'll marry Ashley.
00:18:03You'll marry Ashley?
00:18:05Yeah.
00:18:07You're willing to do that?
00:18:09Yeah, I am.
00:18:11But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:14Okay.
00:18:16Deal.
00:18:18I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:20So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:22Yeah.
00:18:24I am.
00:18:26Okay, good.
00:18:28I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:30She is.
00:18:34What's wrong?
00:18:36We have...
00:18:38a guest.
00:18:40Mr. Thornton.
00:18:42Good to see you again.
00:18:44Interview time.
00:18:46Great.
00:18:48When did you two meet?
00:18:50Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:54What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:56Huh?
00:18:58Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:19:00Interesting.
00:19:01And when did you decide to get married?
00:19:04Eight months ago.
00:19:06Six months or eight months, which one is it?
00:19:08Yeah, eight months ago.
00:19:10Sorry, I just...
00:19:12Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:14Sure.
00:19:16Easy mistake to make.
00:19:18And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:20March 15th.
00:19:22March 15th?
00:19:24All right.
00:19:28Uh...
00:19:29That's it?
00:19:31Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:33I have everything I need.
00:19:35I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:38Oh, wait.
00:19:40This.
00:19:43How did we do in there?
00:19:47It was...
00:19:49pretty bad.
00:19:51Look.
00:19:53I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:55I know who you are.
00:19:57Okay.
00:20:00You want to bribe me?
00:20:02Yes.
00:20:04I can't be bribed.
00:20:06Here's one million dollars.
00:20:12Two million dollars.
00:20:14Right.
00:20:18Three million dollars.
00:20:21It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:23Please.
00:20:25Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:27I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:29She means the world to me.
00:20:31She saved my life.
00:20:33I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:36Make it count.
00:20:40Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:42If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:44Of course.
00:20:46And...
00:20:48one more thing.
00:20:50I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:51I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:54Don't try and fool me.
00:21:00She gave us another chance.
00:21:02Oh, thank God.
00:21:04We have one week to get our story straight.
00:21:06Thank you, Daniel.
00:21:08You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:22Now...
00:21:24I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so...
00:21:27I did a little digging, and I found this.
00:21:30This tree is amazing.
00:21:38What happened?
00:21:41Let me have a look.
00:21:43What happened?
00:21:46Let me have a look.
00:22:13Um...
00:22:15I have a...
00:22:18festive gift...
00:22:20for you two.
00:22:27Wow.
00:22:29Jess, you look...
00:22:31gorgeous.
00:22:37And then, I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:40You did it!
00:22:42You did it!
00:23:13This could be wrong.
00:23:15Maybe.
00:23:17Maybe not.
00:23:43And that...
00:23:45is how you negotiate.
00:23:48You're a learning fan.
00:24:03I'm stuck.
00:24:05Hold on, I got this.
00:24:12I'm stuck.
00:24:43I'm stuck.
00:25:04How much looks further?
00:25:08You know, I've seen this before.
00:25:10In the magazine.
00:25:13It looks like one of those...
00:25:17Thornton family...
00:25:19watches.
00:25:20Is it real?
00:25:23No.
00:25:24It's fake.
00:25:29You wear a fake watch?
00:25:30Yeah.
00:25:42I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:48There's...
00:25:49also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:56Yes.
00:26:07Oh my God.
00:26:08Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:10I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:22Morning.
00:26:23This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:26Daniel, I'm...
00:26:28I'm so...
00:26:29sorry about...
00:26:30last night.
00:26:31It was...
00:26:32It wasn't supposed to happen and I promise it...
00:26:34it'll never happen again.
00:26:38She didn't mean it.
00:26:40Oh, Jessica.
00:26:41Last night was amazing.
00:26:46Yeah, Jess.
00:26:48I get it.
00:26:49It was...
00:26:52It was a one-time thing.
00:26:54Yeah, just like...
00:26:55just a one-time thing.
00:26:57Yeah.
00:27:00Anyway...
00:27:01it's...
00:27:02your big day today.
00:27:04You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:27:08Thank you...
00:27:09for the reminder.
00:27:13Now that you mention it...
00:27:14I'm really scared.
00:27:15Oh, no, Jess.
00:27:17I...
00:27:18didn't mean it like that.
00:27:20What I was meant to say is...
00:27:24I'm gonna help you.
00:27:30I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:31That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:33We still have a chance.
00:27:34That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board
00:27:38to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:41So we just need a board member to back this up.
00:27:44I will call Richard.
00:27:45Everyone respects Richard's vote.
00:27:47And I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:50And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:53You go, girl.
00:28:04These clothes are...
00:28:06beautiful.
00:28:08Yeah.
00:28:10Very expensive.
00:28:12Like this one.
00:28:13That is...
00:28:15$9,000.
00:28:16Jess...
00:28:17don't worry about it.
00:28:19It's on me.
00:28:20Look at it as a...
00:28:22my first gift to my wife.
00:28:24No, Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:27Look, Jess.
00:28:28You're gonna be a CEO.
00:28:29Which means you've gotta look the part.
00:28:31Trust me.
00:28:33It's an investment.
00:28:35Mr. Thornton.
00:28:36Welcome back.
00:28:37How can I assist you today?
00:28:39You come here a lot?
00:28:41Well, of course.
00:28:42Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:45Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:48You'll look great in it.
00:28:53Wow.
00:28:54Jess, you look...
00:28:55amazing.
00:28:58You think so?
00:28:59Yeah.
00:29:01This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:29:03Absolutely.
00:29:04Great choice.
00:29:05We'll take this one.
00:29:08Something on your mind?
00:29:11Well, it's probably nothing.
00:29:12But it's just...
00:29:13that clerk seemed very...
00:29:15fond of you.
00:29:16Oh.
00:29:18Being friendly is a part of my job.
00:29:21Okay.
00:29:28So that's how you got your lawyer.
00:29:30Huh?
00:29:32Now that you mention it...
00:29:34maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:35But...
00:29:36we got a discount.
00:29:38Show-off.
00:29:47What a slut.
00:29:52Trust me, Jess.
00:29:53You can do this.
00:29:55Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:57They will.
00:29:58Trust me.
00:29:59Just speak from the heart.
00:30:00Show your true self.
00:30:02Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:30:06Pathetic.
00:30:10Ted,
00:30:11can we talk about this later?
00:30:12Okay.
00:30:15You go in.
00:30:16I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:30:23Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:26You're gonna need it.
00:30:28You don't have the votes.
00:30:29You don't have the votes.
00:30:34I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,
00:30:38but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:30:41Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services,
00:30:47reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:30:50We have over 10,000 employees worldwide
00:30:55who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up.
00:30:58And I was one of them.
00:30:59I know them.
00:31:01And I believe that I can help lead this company
00:31:04to become everyone's company.
00:31:07Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:09All in favor?
00:31:14Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:16He picked his secret child to be the CEO
00:31:19only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:22Richard, if I may...
00:31:23I'm not done talking.
00:31:25You can't lead us.
00:31:26You can't lead us.
00:31:28And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:31Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:32Go ahead.
00:31:34But I won't change my mind.
00:31:39Sorry for interrupting everyone,
00:31:40but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:31:43Who the hell are you?
00:31:44Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:48What did you just say?
00:31:50How do I say this?
00:31:52Uh...
00:31:53You're a sex pervert.
00:31:55What?
00:31:58You see, everyone,
00:32:00this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits
00:32:04against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:32:09Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:12They're all just allegations,
00:32:13and they've all been settled.
00:32:14I'm innocent.
00:32:15We've also got in contact with some of the victims,
00:32:17and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:19Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:32:21You're also stealing money from the company.
00:32:24And we have the financial records to prove it.
00:32:31The evidence is clear.
00:32:33He's guilty.
00:32:36Okay, then.
00:32:37Let's all vote for Richard Donald's immediate suspension.
00:32:41All in favor?
00:32:46We have 15 votes.
00:32:49The board has decided
00:32:50Richard Donald is officially removed from his position.
00:32:54Security,
00:32:55escort him out immediately.
00:32:57I know my way.
00:33:03And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:33:21I'm sorry I was late.
00:33:22I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.
00:33:24No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:26That was so worth the wait.
00:33:28Good.
00:33:31This is not over.
00:33:33You'll see.
00:33:34How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:35You're about to be evicted soon.
00:33:37Bye-bye.
00:33:43She won again, that bitch.
00:33:45I know.
00:33:46It's so unfair.
00:33:47Do we have a guest?
00:33:48Lisa, honey.
00:33:50I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:52Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:54I've been busy.
00:33:55Busy.
00:33:57Dealing with Jessica.
00:33:59How did you know?
00:34:00Oh, I know.
00:34:01And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:34:04Again.
00:34:05No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:34:07I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:11To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:14Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:34:16I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:21Who are you calling?
00:34:25Is it?
00:34:26Yes, Jess.
00:34:27It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:29Oh, my God.
00:34:30Mom?
00:34:31Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:34The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:37I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:39I'm so sorry.
00:34:41Jess, I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:46Mom, it's okay.
00:34:48You didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:49I'll bring you back into the country.
00:34:51I promise.
00:34:53Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:55I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:57They did me a favor.
00:34:59But I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:12Two more, please.
00:35:15Daniel.
00:35:18Adrian.
00:35:19Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:21Oh, my God. How long has it been?
00:35:23Ten years.
00:35:24Ten years?
00:35:25Oh, my God.
00:35:27The last time I must have seen you was at law school.
00:35:31Yep.
00:35:32Go Reds.
00:35:34Go Reds.
00:35:36What are you doing here?
00:35:38Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:40Just thought I'd come in for a quick bite.
00:35:42Nice, man. Nice.
00:35:44I saw your date earlier.
00:35:45She looks pretty.
00:35:47Yeah, my wife.
00:35:49Your wife?
00:35:50Yeah, Jess.
00:35:51You're married?
00:35:52Yes.
00:35:53Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:35:54Come on. Let's go say hi.
00:35:56Come and say hello.
00:35:57It's good to see you, buddy.
00:35:58Good to see you, too, man.
00:36:00Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:36:02Adrian, this is Jess.
00:36:04Jess, this is Adrian.
00:36:05We went to law school together.
00:36:11I don't want to see him.
00:36:17I don't want to see him.
00:36:21You two know each other?
00:36:22Yes, Daniel.
00:36:24I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:29Come on, Jess.
00:36:30Don't you miss me?
00:36:32I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:34You know you still love me, Jess.
00:36:37No, I don't.
00:36:41I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:44Okay, Daniel. Relax.
00:36:46Now.
00:36:52I'm leaving.
00:36:57But she knows she's lying.
00:37:03Boss, Adrian Westley now represents the Eastside Christian Method.
00:37:06They wanted to test the word.
00:37:08I should have known.
00:37:10What else?
00:37:11Adrian also used me, Jessica.
00:37:13Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:37:18It caused all this trouble.
00:37:23That son of a bitch.
00:37:25We need to win this war.
00:37:27Do whatever it takes.
00:37:36Daniel?
00:37:38Sorry.
00:37:39Did I wake you?
00:37:41No, can...
00:37:43Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:49You sure?
00:37:54I just...
00:37:55I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:37:59The restaurant.
00:38:02I got a bit carried away.
00:38:04Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:38:08Adrian's an asshole.
00:38:09He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:11I did care for Adrian once.
00:38:15But he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:18I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:38:25And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:30No one else.
00:38:38I love you.
00:38:43I love you too, Jess.
00:38:45And I'm not going anywhere.
00:39:00Good morning, husband.
00:39:02Morning, wife.
00:39:04Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:39:06If only you were with me.
00:39:28You're going to do great today.
00:39:34No.
00:39:36No, no, no.
00:39:38Jess?
00:39:39Here's your coffee.
00:39:44What's wrong?
00:39:45Oh, it's just, it's this job.
00:39:47It's all so new to me.
00:39:49Okay, calm down.
00:39:51Remember, you're the CEO.
00:39:53Which means you're the boss.
00:39:55Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:59Hey, Jess.
00:40:00Hey, Jess.
00:40:01Look at you, sitting in the big chair now.
00:40:04Oh, Giovanna, I am so happy you're here.
00:40:08Aww.
00:40:11You must be Daniel.
00:40:13Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:17I'm flattered.
00:40:18I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:40:20It's exhausting.
00:40:21Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:23I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:27Jess?
00:40:30Do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:34Of course.
00:40:36We've been besties since forever.
00:40:39Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:41Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna?
00:40:47Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:50I don't understand.
00:40:51How would you like to come work for me?
00:40:57Of course.
00:41:00Okay then.
00:41:01My first order as a CEO.
00:41:05Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:41:10Oh my god, Jess, thank you so much.
00:41:13See?
00:41:14Being a boss is easy.
00:41:16You can do whatever you want.
00:41:25Oh my god.
00:41:27What's wrong?
00:41:28The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:32What is happening?
00:41:34This isn't normal.
00:41:36The stock's getting down.
00:41:37Well, well, well.
00:41:40Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:41:42What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:44I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:41:49The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:53What do you want?
00:41:54Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:41:59No way.
00:42:01Okay.
00:42:03Then I will destroy this company.
00:42:05Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:42:08They're angry.
00:42:14What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:16Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:42:19Wait, Jess.
00:42:21Don't go.
00:42:22Take a seat.
00:42:24What is it?
00:42:25Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:30Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:33That's impossible. You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:38I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:41God damn it!
00:42:43God, she's annoying.
00:42:48You must be my lucky star.
00:42:55Daniel.
00:42:59Gianna?
00:43:00I know who you are, Daniel.
00:43:02You're the son of James Thornton.
00:43:05How did you find out?
00:43:06My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:43:08I used to work for your father.
00:43:10Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:11I'll pay you. How much do you want?
00:43:13I don't want your money.
00:43:15I care for my friend.
00:43:17Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:21I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:22It's okay.
00:43:24I just want to know why.
00:43:26She hates my family.
00:43:28I have to lie to her.
00:43:30She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:34I can see that.
00:43:36You really think so?
00:43:38Yes.
00:43:39I love her, too.
00:43:41She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:43:46That's good to hear.
00:43:48Please protect her.
00:43:50Please protect her.
00:43:58Daniel.
00:44:00It's my mom.
00:44:02Adrian threatened her.
00:44:08Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:44:10He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:14What should we do?
00:44:16Jess.
00:44:17I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:19I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:36Tyler.
00:44:38I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:41Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:43Got it, boss.
00:44:44She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:47Good.
00:44:54Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:56Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:45:00Thank you, Daniel.
00:45:03But I'm...
00:45:05I'm still scared.
00:45:07I just... I need a day off.
00:45:09I love the sound of that.
00:45:11What did you have in mind?
00:45:13I was thinking...
00:45:17I want to buy a house.
00:45:28So...
00:45:31Do you like this place?
00:45:32It's amazing.
00:45:34But...
00:45:35Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:37But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:38No.
00:45:39No.
00:45:40I insist.
00:45:42You've done so much
00:45:44to help me.
00:45:45Besides, we can live together here.
00:45:48Mr. Thornton.
00:45:49Hi.
00:45:50Your father is here.
00:45:52Are you meeting him here?
00:45:57Well...
00:45:59I've never met your parents.
00:46:01So...
00:46:03I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:46:05Oh, is...
00:46:07Is that him?
00:46:09Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:11Jess, wait.
00:46:12Uh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:15Um...
00:46:17I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:21Why?
00:46:22Uh...
00:46:24Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:27I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:29Okay.
00:46:31I'll just...
00:46:32Okay.
00:46:34I'll just...
00:46:36stay here then.
00:46:39Good.
00:46:44Dad?
00:46:45Come on.
00:46:46Daniel.
00:46:47What the hell?
00:46:48Jessica's here.
00:46:49She can't see her face.
00:46:50Don't take them off.
00:46:53I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:55Huh?
00:46:59Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:47:02Ashley?
00:47:03Really?
00:47:04Not today.
00:47:07And...
00:47:08What is this shirt you're wearing?
00:47:10Your mother insisted I wear it...
00:47:12in this charity event in New England.
00:47:14Right.
00:47:15Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:19I told you not to.
00:47:22And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:24I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:26I give you Clara...
00:47:28and you marry Ashley.
00:47:34Why does he look so...
00:47:36nervous?
00:47:37Am I not good enough?
00:47:42Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:47:44I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:47I want this deal done now.
00:47:49Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:51Lisa Milne might try and be sabotaging everything.
00:47:54This is why you don't mess with the Milne family.
00:47:57You should have left it alone.
00:47:59All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:48:01Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:48:04What?
00:48:06Jess!
00:48:07Jess.
00:48:17Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:19Jess.
00:48:20Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:22You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:24Jimmy?
00:48:26Right.
00:48:28I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:29It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:31And can I just say...
00:48:33that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:35It really, really suits you.
00:48:37Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:48:39It's one I'm fond of.
00:48:43So, who is Ashley?
00:48:46I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:48Oh, she's just an old family friend.
00:48:54They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:57Oh.
00:48:58And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:49:01Oh.
00:49:02Her wedding is approaching soon, and I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:49:07Dad!
00:49:09I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:49:11No, it's fine.
00:49:12Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:49:16You bastard child!
00:49:23Well, well.
00:49:24What do we have here?
00:49:27You think you can afford this place?
00:49:29You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:34Who's this clown?
00:49:39Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:49:41How dare you, Kristen!
00:49:43How do you know my name?
00:49:45And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:49:47That's enough!
00:49:50Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:56He's your father.
00:49:59How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:50:02Don't talk to my family like that.
00:50:05Your family.
00:50:06Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:09Especially your mother.
00:50:11The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:14A whore.
00:50:23Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:26Especially your mother.
00:50:28The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:31A whore.
00:50:34Damn!
00:50:38How dare you slap me!
00:50:42That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:45You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:50Ladies, you need to leave. Now.
00:50:53You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:55We're not going anywhere.
00:50:56The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:59You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:51:04You will regret this.
00:51:08I've heard that a thousand times.
00:51:10Now leave.
00:51:21Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:22You stood up for me.
00:51:24Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:26It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:31Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:34You're a nice girl.
00:51:37You found a good wife, son.
00:51:41Dad.
00:51:42About Ashley's wedding.
00:51:44I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:51:46I'll look into it.
00:51:48I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:49Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:51Daniel can still attend. It's not a problem.
00:51:54Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:57I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:59Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:52:04Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:52:06Oh, there's a lawn party.
00:52:09You two want to come? It's in three hours.
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14Dad, we'll go.
00:52:16Great.
00:52:18I'll see you there.
00:52:29Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:34Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:40And James Thornton is here.
00:52:44I know you don't want to see him.
00:52:47But Jess, my dad's here.
00:52:49He's going to join us later.
00:52:50Okay.
00:52:52The bidding's about to start.
00:52:58Oh, that bitch is here!
00:53:00I know.
00:53:01Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:53:03Yeah, how?
00:53:04Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:53:10With money.
00:53:11Here with money? What money?
00:53:12I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:14Yeah, I know.
00:53:15Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:16Said he's willing to donate us some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:23You're the best.
00:53:26I know.
00:53:31Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:53:34We have for you The Last Dance.
00:53:37Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:53:43One million dollars!
00:53:46Two million dollars, right here.
00:53:52Three million dollars!
00:53:58Four million dollars!
00:54:01What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:54:03I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:54:06Really? But I don't even care about this bit.
00:54:10Five million dollars!
00:54:12Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:14Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:19Five million dollars!
00:54:21Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:22Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:24I got six million dollars.
00:54:27Cash.
00:54:28Boom.
00:54:30Can't compete with that.
00:54:32Watch this.
00:54:33Watch this.
00:54:35Seven million dollars!
00:54:38Eight million dollars!
00:54:40Did that just happen?
00:54:41Ten million dollars!
00:54:46Awesome.
00:54:48Ten million, once, twice, sold.
00:54:52So, gentlemen, there.
00:54:55Where did you get that money from?
00:54:57Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:55:02Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:06Jessica.
00:55:07James Thornton.
00:55:09In the flesh.
00:55:10Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:12I want to apologize to you.
00:55:14I am truly sorry for everything I did to you.
00:55:17I'm so sorry.
00:55:20I want to apologize to you.
00:55:22I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:55:26But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:29Well, I don't know what to say.
00:55:33Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:55:35You've just got to trust me.
00:55:36Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:40Jess!
00:55:41Jessica!
00:55:42Don't follow me!
00:55:45Oh, this could get interesting.
00:55:48Uh-huh.
00:55:59Oh, look who's alone.
00:56:03No, just leave me alone.
00:56:05You're never going to win against James Thornton.
00:56:07He's my mother's best friend.
00:56:09You're going to lose everything.
00:56:11You're going to lose everything.
00:56:13Poor babe, still played by the big boys.
00:56:16James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:56:20Wait, what did you just say?
00:56:23James Thornton and his son?
00:56:25Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:56:27Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:31Oh, my God.
00:56:33I didn't know that.
00:56:34Now that I do.
00:56:36Wow.
00:56:37That's enough!
00:56:39Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:42Crown Prince said the Thornton family.
00:56:53This man has been lying to you all along.
00:56:55Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:58Both of you, get out of here.
00:57:02Okay.
00:57:09Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:57:12Am I a joke to you?
00:57:14No, what do you mean?
00:57:16You and your father.
00:57:18You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:21No, I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:24I can't trust you.
00:57:27You lied to me.
00:57:29You're right.
00:57:30You're right.
00:57:34I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:38You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:41Another big secret.
00:57:44Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:51The other big secret is,
00:57:53the first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:57:57It was five years ago.
00:57:59Five years ago?
00:58:00Yes.
00:58:02At a party.
00:58:04I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:09Okay.
00:58:15Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:21I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:24But you won't remember that.
00:58:27But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:31That...
00:58:33That was you?
00:58:34Yes.
00:58:35My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:38But I didn't care.
00:58:40I confronted him.
00:58:42You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:58:44You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:58:45I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:47That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:58:52And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:56And I felt so guilty.
00:58:57It's okay.
00:59:01I was ashamed to approach you.
00:59:03I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:59:06And I thought the best thing to do was just leave you alone.
00:59:10No, I know.
00:59:11And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:14Well...
00:59:17I saved you.
00:59:19And you saved me.
00:59:23Because we just belong together.
00:59:29Ew.
00:59:30Corny.
00:59:33But just...
00:59:36No more secrets.
00:59:38Okay?
00:59:40I promise.
00:59:42No more secrets.
00:59:59You're up early.
01:00:01Yeah.
01:00:03I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
01:00:05Better sooner than later.
01:00:10Gianna's just texted me.
01:00:12She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:17I should postpone it.
01:00:18No.
01:00:19You should definitely go to that.
01:00:21You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:22Really?
01:00:23Yeah.
01:00:24I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:27Thanks.
01:00:28You're the best.
01:00:33Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:35Someone underestimates yourself, Jess.
01:00:37You did great.
01:00:43Heya, Jess.
01:00:44What are you doing here?
01:00:50What are you doing here?
01:00:51I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:57Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:01:03Okay, I'm telling you now.
01:01:05Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not gonna work.
01:01:11Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:14Everything?
01:01:15Are you so sure?
01:01:17Yeah.
01:01:18Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:20There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:22And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:25What?
01:01:26Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:28Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:31Ring any bells?
01:01:32Ashley.
01:01:36Ashley.
01:01:38Who is Ashley?
01:01:40I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:42Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:47They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:49Oh.
01:01:50And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:56He did mention Ashley.
01:02:01He did?
01:02:02Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:02:05I remember that conversation.
01:02:10Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:02:13I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:16What are you laughing about?
01:02:22Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:02:25But he's not gonna see her.
01:02:30After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:36And what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:38I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:42So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:46Just like old times.
01:02:48Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:53Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
01:02:56Care to find out together?
01:03:00Yeah.
01:03:06Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:03:08Yes.
01:03:09You're free to live in this country.
01:03:11Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:15I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:16Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:18Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:21We'll go to her.
01:03:23Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:28You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:29Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:31Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:33Agents, do your thing.
01:03:35Wait.
01:03:36What?
01:03:37This is a mistake.
01:03:38No.
01:03:39Clara's got past customs.
01:03:40She can stay.
01:03:41Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:03:44I don't think so.
01:03:45Back off, Lisa.
01:03:46Watch it, buddy boy.
01:03:48Jess.
01:03:49Jess!
01:03:50Mom!
01:03:51Mom!
01:03:52What are you doing?
01:03:53Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:54Mom, I'll bring her back, I promise.
01:03:56Just stay strong.
01:03:57Princess, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:04:00Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:04:02You'll pay for this.
01:04:04See, babe?
01:04:05I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:04:07You said everything was taken care of.
01:04:09Jess, it's not me.
01:04:11It's them.
01:04:12You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:13Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:15Jess.
01:04:18Jess.
01:04:19He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:21Okay, so it's true.
01:04:23Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:26No.
01:04:27No, no, no, no.
01:04:28Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:04:31I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:33Jess!
01:04:34Can you just...
01:04:35Looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:37You're never getting her back.
01:04:56Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:27Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:29Her paperwork was flawless.
01:05:31You're right, boss.
01:05:32I checked with customers in the USCIS,
01:05:35and they both confirm that she illegally entered the country and killed her.
01:05:39That is enough.
01:05:43Agents, do your thing.
01:05:44Wait.
01:05:45What?
01:05:46This is a mistake.
01:05:47No.
01:05:48Jess.
01:05:49Jess!
01:05:50Baby!
01:05:51Mom!
01:05:53The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:56They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:59Hold on a sec.
01:06:03You're right, boss.
01:06:04We found out those people want her.
01:06:06What should we do?
01:06:08I need to find out where they took them.
01:06:10Use all our contacts.
01:06:11I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:13On it, boss.
01:06:15Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:18Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:20We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:23Don't look at me like that.
01:06:25You disgust me.
01:06:32Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:34I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:35It's about your mom.
01:06:36I'm not talking to you.
01:06:37You're not talking to me.
01:06:38You're not talking to me!
01:06:39You're not talking to me!
01:06:40Yes, we need to talk.
01:06:41I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:42It's about your mom.
01:06:44I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:46The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:49What are you talking about?
01:06:51I spoke to Ted.
01:06:52He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:06:55It was a setup.
01:06:57Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:07:00After all the lies?
01:07:01You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:07:10Hello, bastard child.
01:07:12Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:14And if you ever want to see her again,
01:07:16follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:19And don't bring anyone, especially Daniel.
01:07:25Let me come with you.
01:07:26No.
01:07:26They want me alone.
01:07:27I don't want to disturb you.
01:07:28Jess?
01:07:28Don't follow me.
01:07:29I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:38Mom?
01:07:39Bastard child, over here.
01:07:41You let her go.
01:07:42This has gone on far enough.
01:07:44Not so fast, sis.
01:07:47This is only the beginning.
01:07:52You sign this, we let her go.
01:07:57And what is it?
01:07:58An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:08:01The house, company, everything.
01:08:10It's signed?
01:08:12No, let her go.
01:08:14God, you are so naive, sis.
01:08:17Now what more do you want?
01:08:20Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:27Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:31Wait.
01:08:32That's better.
01:08:40Now bark like a dog.
01:08:46Come on.
01:08:51That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:52Get off me.
01:08:53Get off me.
01:08:54Get off me.
01:08:55Get off me.
01:08:56Get off me.
01:08:57Get off me.
01:08:58Get off me.
01:08:59Get off me.
01:09:00Get off me.
01:09:02Come on.
01:09:03Come on.
01:09:04We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:09:12Let's get her out of here.
01:09:13Come on.
01:09:14Let's go.
01:09:15Come on.
01:09:16Daniel!
01:09:20Come on.
01:09:21Come on.
01:09:22We need to finish this.
01:09:23Come on.
01:09:24We got to go.
01:09:25Come on.
01:09:26Daniel!
01:09:27Please.
01:09:31Jess.
01:09:34Don't try and talk to the police.
01:09:36They're on their way.
01:09:37Jess.
01:09:39I'm so sorry.
01:09:40Why are you apologizing?
01:09:42Just don't move.
01:09:53The doctor said it was nothing serious.
01:09:55He'll be out of here soon.
01:09:57Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:59I'm so sorry.
01:10:01Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:10:04You saved my mom.
01:10:06You saved us.
01:10:09Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:10:11Officer, you're here.
01:10:13Yes.
01:10:14You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:19Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:22He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:24Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:27Jess, it's okay.
01:10:30We can do the interview.
01:10:35We can do the interview.
01:10:38Are you insane?
01:10:40We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:42Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:10:47there's no better time to do this.
01:10:49You're right.
01:10:50We're ready, officer.
01:10:52Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:55When did you two first meet?
01:10:57Five years and four months ago.
01:10:59I don't understand.
01:11:01Last time you said it was six months ago
01:11:04when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:11:06We lied, officer.
01:11:08But it was five years ago.
01:11:10At a pool party.
01:11:12And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:15It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:17But for some reason,
01:11:19I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:24It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:26But for some reason,
01:11:28I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:31Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:35There's nothing more that he needs to do
01:11:37to prove his love for me.
01:11:39I'm sorry.
01:11:41There's nothing more that he needs to do
01:11:43to prove his love for me.
01:11:45One last question.
01:11:47How frequently have you two spent the night together
01:11:49in the past week?
01:11:57Relax.
01:11:59I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:12:01Right. Well, that's my interview done.
01:12:03You two are quite the couple.
01:12:05Thank you, officer.
01:12:07Daniel!
01:12:09Daniel! She's coming!
01:12:11Who's coming?
01:12:18Your fiancé.
01:12:20That's who.
01:12:25Your fiancé.
01:12:27That's who.
01:12:29Ashley.
01:12:31I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:33You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:35Ashley,
01:12:37please, can't we talk about this?
01:12:39So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:41Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:43I don't know what
01:12:45Adrian told you,
01:12:47but it's not what you think.
01:12:49Daniel
01:12:51was supposed to marry me,
01:12:53and then you just waltzed in
01:12:55and ruined everything.
01:12:57Ashley, our engagement was long over
01:12:59before Jessica came to the picture.
01:13:01Oh.
01:13:03I see.
01:13:05You think this is over.
01:13:07I'm the heiress
01:13:09of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:11The Thornton name
01:13:13is as good as ruined.
01:13:15You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:21Watch me.
01:13:27You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:30I own
01:13:32Miller Empire.
01:13:34And if you come
01:13:36for the Thorntons,
01:13:38the Miller Empire
01:13:40is gonna come for you
01:13:42so hard.
01:13:46You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:50I like you.
01:13:54I gotta tell you,
01:13:56I didn't expect that.
01:13:58I didn't expect that.
01:14:00This is so much better than watching TV.
01:14:02Glad to see you've replaced me
01:14:04with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:14:10I always knew Daniel
01:14:12didn't love me,
01:14:14but he was too afraid of his father
01:14:16to ever go after his true love.
01:14:18But
01:14:20I guess I'm happy
01:14:22that he's found someone
01:14:24who wants the same things as him.
01:14:26So
01:14:30that's it?
01:14:32That's it.
01:14:36Enjoy your happy ending,
01:14:38darling.
01:14:42Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:47Did that actually just happen?
01:14:49Yeah.
01:14:51Wow. You two
01:14:53really don't let anyone or anything
01:14:55get in the way of true love.
01:14:57Let's see it after.
01:15:01This is all your fault, Mom.
01:15:03If you wouldn't have been so reckless,
01:15:05then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:15:07Don't put all the blame on me.
01:15:09You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:15:11Where is Ashley? She should be here by now.
01:15:13Miss me?
01:15:15Where have you been?
01:15:17Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:19Don't worry about it.
01:15:21Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:23We're falling apart.
01:15:35What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:37Well, me myself?
01:15:39I've done nothing illegal.
01:15:41You two on the other hand,
01:15:43that's a different story.
01:15:45You set us up!
01:15:47I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:49After all,
01:15:52Oh!
01:15:56Ow!
01:15:58You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:16:00I already have.
01:16:08I remember when this place was filled
01:16:10with warmth and laughter.
01:16:12It used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:14Then things
01:16:16just went south.
01:16:18Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:20We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:22No more hatred.
01:16:24No more backstabbing.
01:16:26I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:28I'm so sorry for everything
01:16:30both of us had to go through.
01:16:35Jessica?
01:16:37What?
01:16:39I am so sorry
01:16:41for everything that I've done to you both.
01:16:43I was wrong.
01:16:45And I know I can
01:16:47never fully make up for it.
01:16:49But I want to try.
01:16:51James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:53It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:55I know, Clara.
01:17:00Jess, are you alright?
01:17:04Yeah, I know.
01:17:06I'm fine.
01:17:08I just feel
01:17:10nauseous, that's all.
01:17:12Have you been getting any other symptoms
01:17:14like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:16Yeah,
01:17:18but I just thought that was
01:17:20from all the stress.
01:17:24Sweetheart,
01:17:26you're pregnant!
01:17:28Really?
01:17:30You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:32We're going to have a baby!
01:17:34Wait,
01:17:36that means I'm going to be a grandpa!
01:17:40Yeah!
01:17:46Daniel,
01:17:48there's something
01:17:50you need to do.
01:17:54What's this?
01:17:56This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:58And I think
01:18:00this is the perfect
01:18:02time to use it.
01:18:04Go grab it.
01:18:06I'm going to do this?
01:18:08Yeah, go.
01:18:16Jess?
01:18:18Jess!
01:18:22Jess, I know we've only ever spent time
01:18:24together a week during Christmas.
01:18:26And we've been through so much
01:18:28in that time. And over the past five
01:18:30years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:32And I've
01:18:34had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:36I want to spend every
01:18:38waking moment in time with you.
01:18:40What I'm trying to say is, Jess,
01:18:46will you marry me?
01:18:50For real this time?
01:18:52Yes, Daniel! Yes, I will marry you!
01:18:54Yes!
01:18:56Really?
01:19:10Daniel.
